WASHINGTON, D.C. , February 14, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – The Obama administration 's decision to recognize same-sex “marriages” in states that do not recognize them undermines the Constitution's protection of states rights, according to two staunch pro-family senators. They have introduced a bill to end that encroachment. On Thursday, Sens. Ted Cruz, R-TX, and Mike Lee , R-UT, introduced the State Marriage Defense Act (S 2024). This bill would allow states to preserve and enforce their definition of marriage, as voted on by their people, without interference by the federal government. Sen. Ted Cruz , R-TX A similar bill  was introduced to the House of Representatives on January 10 by Rep. Randy Weber , R-TX, and currently has  57 co-sponsors . The bill has a better chance in the Republican-controlled House than Cruz and Lee’s in the Democrat-controlled Senate. “I support traditional marriage,” Sen. Ted Cruz  said . “Under President Obama , the federal gove...

Another very important piece of legislation has been introduced in Congress and  I am urging all NOM supporters to take action today to urge their Representatives to support this critical bill: the State Marriage Defense Act of 2014. The bill, authored by Representative Randy Weber of Texas, aims to reaffirm and strengthen the right of states accorded them in the U.S. Constitution to define marriage and to have their determinations in this important matter respected by the federal government. It already enjoys over two dozen co-sponsors in the House of Representatives as it begins being debated in the House Judiciary Committee . I cannot emphasize enough how important federal legislation like this is becoming each day as we continue to see the fallout of the Supreme Court's decision last summer in the   Windsor case that challenged a particular section of DOMA : In Utah, a constitutional crisis is underway as the State works to defend its marriage amendment in th...

Regardless of where the justices fall on the question of same-sex "marriage," they probably had to pick their jaws up off the floor after the country's chief law enforcer put the Court's latest marriage decisions through the paper shredder and promised to validate Utah's same-sex "weddings"  after  the Court's stay on counterfeit marriages. In plain rebellion to the justices' June ruling, Holder announced that DOJ would take matters into its own hands and offer more than 1,000 federal benefits to couples, who, under state law, aren't even legally married! Back in December, Judge Robert Shelby took a wild leap, declaring Utah's marriage am...

January 9,2014 ( FRC ) - It's been a convenient talking point of the media that Republicans haven't said much about the marriage debate since the Supreme Court's summer ruling. Yesterday, they let their legislation do the talking. After a string of bad court decisions, Congress is stepping in to do the job that five justices did not: protect state marriage laws. Under the leadership of Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas), conservatives are  making it clear  that they have no intentions of backing away from the unions that a super majority of states respect. When the Supreme Court overturned part of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) last June, the federal government was suddenly forced to recognize same-sex "marriages" regarding more than 1,000 laws and benefits that apply to "spouses." What the justices didn't  do was clarify what the ruling meant for homosexuals who "wed" in a state where it was legal and then moved to one of the 33 states ...
